Bug 41308: Use the same branch for Desktop and GeckoView

Part of tor-browser#41308 (closed).

Needs tor-browser!373 (merged) to be merged first.

Until when are we planning to use the geckoview branch for stable releases?

If we plan to keep using the old geckoview branch in 12.0 stable, I think we should add a targets/release/git_hash to use the geckoview branch for stable builds.

Otherwise it looks good to me.

I think the plan is to start using the tor-browser branch immediately for 12.0a4 and use it with 12.0, unless anything goes wrong.

@richard do you confirm?

ideally we will be using the converged geckoview/tor-browser branch in both Android and Desktop in the 12.0 stable series.

Ok, then no need to add a targets/release/git_hash in that case, and the MR looks good to me.
